"Sure enough, the self-formulated drugs work quite well, so my persona is actually Yssring, right?"
In the new dormitory, Chen Ran twisted his arm, feeling the power surging within him, and couldn't help but feel amazed.
Even as a graduate student in biopharmaceuticals, creating a qualified drug requires multiple trials and errors. However, when he got the drugs, he felt completely at ease and quickly adjusted the best ratio, as if he were a genius.
He felt that the knowledge given to him by the system had surpassed that of a regular biology graduate student.
But for now, this was only beneficial.
The sore muscles were relieved, and Chen Ran intended to give some of this to Kevin as well.
However, Kevin clearly trusted Fire Moth's drugs more; in fact, in terms of performance, Fire Moth's drugs were more potent and aggressive.
After all, Chen Ran was an unverified graduate student, and his drugs were unbranded products.
Chen Ran felt helpless about this.
However, even if Fire Moth's drugs had side effects, they wouldn't matter much. After all, Kevin would eventually become a MANTIS, which wouldn't affect him at all.
His days passed like this for three days.
During these three days, Chen Ran could no longer describe his state as 'comfortable.'
Although the drugs had some effect, Fire Moth was also gradually increasing the training intensity, truly pushing people to their limits.
In this vast organization, it was ruthless and harsh; everyone was like gears in a machine, operating.
What he did every day, apart from training, was to digest the knowledge in his brain. To complete this goal faster, he also specifically visited the Mu Continent network through the Fire Moth intranet, trying to decipher cutting-edge biological knowledge.
Although he couldn't decipher the vast majority of it.
But the result didn't matter; as long as he could understand it.
Chen Ran had always known that to make a person's science scores soar, you just had to let them do it, digesting advanced problems.
This was the fastest way. Although most people would lose their resolve before advanced problems.
He didn't understand most academic language, but fortunately, the knowledge range provided by the system was broad enough to greatly enhance the 'graduate student' status.
The system had likely stuffed all the content that a graduate student would encounter into Chen Ran's mind.
And through this method of training during the day and studying at night for three days, Chen Ran could finally proudly announce—he had lost five pounds.
…
"It's finally time to simulate. I can't stay in Fire Moth for even a day longer."
"Therefore, the hosting is still meaningful. If it were just me, I'd probably announce my withdrawal on the second day of joining Fire Moth."
Once again arriving at the ocean branch through simulation, Chen Ran felt that life was still very beautiful.
As for the suffering and hardships, let's leave that to number 666.
"The last simulation lasted at most just one day; this time, I hope I can last a bit longer."
According to the system, the first time is always like this.
It will be painful, uncomfortable, and hard to adapt.
But these will gradually get better, then become enduring, even to the point of numbness.
Like memories that have been severed beginning to recover, the time in the simulated scene continued to flow away.
He finally completed today's work tasks.
The ocean branch is the branch of Schicksal with the highest research capabilities besides the headquarters, but that doesn't mean there are research outputs every moment.
What he was doing could be considered menial work.
"I need to get an independent laboratory sometime," Chen Ran thought to himself.
Although he was specially recruited into Schicksal, everyone here has impressive degrees and resumes, so an independent laboratory is still out of his reach.
…
…
Ocean branch, training ground.
Wendy was holding a Colt pistol, undergoing shooting training.
This was currently the only training she could do, and even so, the recoil from the gun would cause her wheelchair to roll backward.
Although each backward movement wasn't very far, she was getting further away from the shooting target.
There's no doubt that Wendy has a high talent; her shooting scores were perfect every time.
However, if it were just like this, even the ScytheZombie on the battlefield wouldn't be able to handle it.
At this moment, the experiment had not yet been declared a failure; it was just continuing to observe. Wendy still harbored hopes for the future.
However, she noticed the Valkyries around her deliberately keeping their distance, which made her feel a bit disheartened.
Inside her was a complete Herrscher Core, containing an almost unimaginable amount of Honkai Energy. Now, she was like a ticking time bomb, and it was understandable that people feared her.
Though understanding doesn't mean acceptance.
"Ah, I can't take it anymore, I'm going to die."
"I can't run, I really can't run anymore."
Just as Wendy continued to adjust her wheelchair, she heard Chen Ran's dejected voice.
After work in the afternoon, Chen Ran brought Wendy to the training ground, only to be asked to run five kilometers.
Although he was pleasantly surprised to find that his physical enhancement in reality also carried over into the simulation, this time he was asked by Wendy to do a weighted run.
He felt that his efforts in the simulated scene were akin to self-torture.
Smart people solve problems with their brains, right?
Why was he doing such meaningless physical labor?
Wendy's gaze fell on Chen Ran, and she couldn't help but smile.
She said, "Sorry, I forgot to consider your stamina. If you're tired, you can take a break. Training needs to be gradual; muscle strains are no good."
Wendy wasn't a cold person; on the contrary, she was very gentle.
After getting familiar with Chen Ran, she began to care about his physical condition: "Be careful when you drink water later; use saline to replenish electrolytes."
"Unfortunately, I'm not very mobile; otherwise, I could help you prepare."
"Haha, it's okay, you've already taught me enough."
Chen Ran paused and said, "By the way, you've been here for a while; are you tired? Should I take you back, or do you want to look around?"
"Let's look around; you go replenish your water and salt first," Wendy urged.
"Alright, I promise to complete the task!"
——
Fire Moth First Squad.
Number 666 looked thoughtfully at the obstacle in front of it.
Under the instructor's urging, it calculated its current physical stamina and then attempted to control all the muscles in its body with its computational ability, easily passing the obstacle training.
The first to pass the training, Kevin, looked at 'Chen Ran' in surprise.
"You've made great progress," Kevin said. "I thought you'd still be scolded by the instructor today."
"Hehe, you flatter me. Compared to Kevin, I'm nothing," number 666 said with a hint of 'humility.' "Mainly, I was hiding my talents before; now I'm not pretending anymore."
In the newly formed first squad, Kevin was undoubtedly the most talented rookie.
Chen Ran's performance wasn't great; it could only be described as average. Even with the enhancement from drugs, it was still not as obvious as the enhancements from Fire Moth's drugs.
But that was entirely because the human brain couldn't control all the muscles completely; number 666 was different.
Even though it was set to be 99% similar to Chen Ran, it was essentially a computer.
So…
"Kevin bro, I heard your sister-in-law is here too. When will you take me to meet her?"
However, this cold man suddenly blushed slightly: "Ahem, don't say that."
After a long while, he added, "I'll take you to see her when I have time."
Number 666: "Detected an increase in Kevin's affection for the host; keep up the good work."
